2 years agoAtlanta Falcons quarterback Marcus Mariota was solid in his season debut. The former Oregon Duck had 33 pass attempts, completing 20 for 215 yards and no touchdowns. While his passing numbers are disappointing, Mariota added 72 yards on the ground and a rushing touchdown on 12 attempts. Furthermore, he completed passes to seven different players, with the rookie Drake London leading the way. Fantasy players should expect Mariota to have a better passing performance starting next week as his young receiving core gains experience. In the meantime, Mariota's rushing ability will provide him a safe floor for those in two-quarterback or superflex leagues.--Mike Fanelli
